FRIDAY PASTA DINNER
Continuing our tradition of having an elite Nike athlete join us at our pasta dinner we are happy to announce that Mary Cain will be with us at that event. She will join us f or dinner and then give a short talk and Q&A. It was only two years ago that Mary won the New York regional. Since then her career has skyrocketed as she has laid down some otherworldly times and beaten some of the very best runners in the world. It will be interesting to hear her perspective on the huge leap forward her career has made and the changes in her life that have accompanied that success.
